Simple can be harder than complex: you have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it’s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains.”

- Steve Jobs

Here at Bump Networks, we view Steve Jobs as an “Über Human” — a visionary beyond description and equal in achievements to the likes of Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, Martin Luther King, and John F. Kennedy.

His revolutionary focus on simplicity inspires our work daily and the impact that he’s had on technology will always be reflected as we progress forward. Below are a few words our Founder & CTO shared regarding one of his greatest influences, Steve Jobs.

“I’m still in shock that one of my biggest idols lost his life on Wednesday. It is starting to actually hit me – the future impact and the influence he had on me, this company and the overall effect he had on the world as a whole.

To me, Steve Jobs represented the pure notion that effort equals perfection – flaws are just pieces that belong to the process of achievement. His spirit will live on, but I find that I miss him like a family member – someone I loved and respected at a level unknown to me until this point.

His impact will be felt throughout all future generations – similar to the way flight changed human kind. He created the first impact of digital medium & technology directed towards the human experience, which actually triggered a true revolution far greater than we realize at this moment. We can only hope that Apple will honor his methodology and vision, as there is no other that can even come close to filling his shoes.”
